The word for today is - Humble !

Good morning,
The word for today is - Humble !
 
Love is not arrogant. This refers to pride as something deep within the inner mankind, his heart. Love does not boast, looking at what we have and what we want others to see, hear, and acknowledge his or her accomplishments. This is not of God, this is of yourself. Love is not rude. Rudeness is a wrong view of oneself. You think of yourself more highly than you ought to think . It's far better to humble yourself than to get to the point where God must humble you. God had to humble some people in the Bible read 1 Samuel 16. Read 1 Peter 5, Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time. In Matthew 11:29 , Jesus says, "Take my yoke upon you and learn of me, for I am meek and lowly in heart (gentle and humble)." He goes on to say that "ye shall find rest unto your souls" by doing this.When we are really humble, we do not need to worry. We trust God with everything, now and in the future. He knows how to be content. He trusts and obeys the Lord. He does not love anything in this world too much, because he loves the Lord. A humble individual does things without regard to personal gain. It is nice when you apologize or admit you made a mistake. God can tell the difference between true humility and the pretense of humility.  Read Colossians 2. True humility focuses upon God, not upon impressing other people with self-imposed rules to make others believe that you are humble.Thank you God for your word. Amen !
